Apple Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal

Great for breakfast or dessert this Apple Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal is like a cross between cooked oatmeal and cake and it is delicious.

It probably doesn’t come as a surprise that I love oats, you will find many yummy recipes using them right here on Slimming Eats.

3 different delicious homemade granola recipes – Pumpkin Granola, Banana Granola and Chocolate Granola. I’ve been really enjoying having these or breakfast or dessert with yoghurt and fresh fruit. It bulks up the Healthy Extra B serving of oats a little more and makes them much more filling.

I had a few things to get done the other morning and wanted to prepare something for breakfast that I could throw in the oven, let it cook for a while and it be ready once I was done and so figured baked oatmeal would be a good option and went on a search of the contents of the fridge for inspiration.

I spotted a jar of chunky apple sauce and figured it would be perfect. (I always like to have apple sauce on hand, because it is great for sweetening baked goods for the kids without adding lots of sugar). Obviously syns in apple sauce will vary slightly, so be sure to double check the one you use.

If you have time, you could even make some homemade apple sauce for this Apple Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal. You could even add in some chopped fresh apple (also synned because fruit when cooked, blended or pureed becomes syns), I like the apple sauce though, as it tends to pack more flavour and sweetness.

To sweeten this Apple Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal I used some Sukrin Gold, but any sweetener will do, just be aware the taste may differ if you use a different brand of sweetener as some tend to have a bit of an aftertaste. I like Sukrin, because it is the only sweetener I have found that has no aftertaste. So worth investing in some if you haven’t already.

This Apple Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal will also be gluten free if you use gluten free oats (not all oats are gluten free, so be sure to check the ones you use). Unfortunately because of the yoghurt, it isn’t dairy free, but you could try this with a dairy free yoghurt alternative (let me know how that turns out if you do).

I’ve just had this and it was like having pudding for breakfast. I had to adapt it a bit as I don’t have any applesauce so I made it without and served it with a chopped apple and half a tablespoon of maple syrup, the syns are still the same. Love this thank you

I make this in three muffin cases. I feel so ‘naughty’ having three ‘cakes’, really hits the spot! Have you tried freezing these Siobhan? Sorry I just wondered if I could quadruple the recipe and freeze some for later in the week it would save me time in the kitchen.

I absolutely love this recipe, it’s become my go-to breakfast for work. I make a big batch of 10 portions each time – it looks like a horrible bowl of puke when I mix up the ingredients but when it’s baked it smells and tastes delicious! I bake it in a big rectangular dish and then when it’s done I cut it into portions and freeze it and then just pop a portion into the microwave when I get to work. The first time I brought it to work my coworkers thought it was a cake and by the time they’d all tasted it I only had a tiny bite left for my breakfast! Thanks for the recipe – it’s so easy to make and so yummy!! 🙂

Made double the amount last night in one dish and then cut it in half as I wanted to see what it was like cold and re-heated. Had it re-heated this morning and also tried a small piece cold, have to say I liked it both ways, found a different breakfast to take to work X

Would using unsweetened apple sauce work well? Also instead of using sweetener and using sugar would I still add 1 tbs? I’m thinking this will be a great breakfast for the kids but have no sweetener in the house.
